Jorge Isaacs Ferrer fue un destacado novelista, poeta y político colombiano del siglo XIX, reconocido principalmente por su novela María, una obra emblemática del romanticismo hispanoamericano. Nació el 1 de abril de 1837 en Santiago de Cali, en el entonces Estado Soberano del Cauca. Su padre, George Henry Isaacs, era un comerciante inglés de origen judío sefardí que se estableció en Colombia en la década de 1820, mientras que su madre, Manuela Ferrer Scarpetta, era criolla de ascendencia española . Isaacs cursó estudios en Cali, Popayán y Bogotá, aunque no completó su bachillerato. Desde joven, Isaacs participó activamente en los conflictos civiles de su época. En 1854 luchó contra la dictadura del general José María Melo, y en 1860 combatió al general Tomás Cipriano de Mosquera. Estas experiencias influyeron en su visión política, inicialmente conservadora y posteriormente liberal radical. En 1870 fue nombrado cónsul general en Chile y, al regresar, desempeñó diversos cargos políticos, incluyendo la representación del Estado Soberano del Tolima en el Congreso de la República. La producción literaria de Isaacs incluye un libro de poemas publicado en 1864 y su única novela, María (1867), considerada una de las obras más destacadas de la literatura hispanoamericana del siglo XIX . La novela, de tono elegíaco, narra la historia de los amores trágicos de María y su primo Efraín en el Valle del Cauca. La obra destaca por su descripción del paisaje y la calidad artística de su prosa, y ha sido traducida a 31 idiomas. Isaacs falleció el 17 de abril de 1895 en Ibagué, a los 58 años, debido a complicaciones del paludismo que contrajo durante sus trabajos en la construcción del camino entre Buenaventura y Cali . Su legado perdura en la literatura colombiana y en lugares emblemáticos como la Hacienda El Paraíso, escenario de su novela María, que actualmente funciona como museo.
With a number of late-breaking presentations and high-profile phase 2 and 3 trials, the 2025 American Diabetes Association (ADA) Scientific Sessions reflect how rapidly the treatment landscape for obesity and diabetes is evolving. This year's meeting, held June 20–24 in Chicago, will showcase significant updates on combination therapies, once-weekly insulin regimens, and novel mechanisms that may redefine standards of care for both type 1 and type 2 diabetes. Among the highlights: new efficacy and safety data for GLP-1–based therapies, novel amylin analog combinations, and once-monthly treatment options signal a shift toward personalization and convenience in metabolic care. In this special episode of Diabetes Dialogue cohosts Diana Isaacs, PharmD, an endocrine clinical pharmacist, director of Education and Training in Diabetes Technology, and co-director of Endocrine Disorders in Pregnancy at the Cleveland Clinic, and Natalie Bellini, DNP, program director of Diabetes Technology at University Hospitals Diabetes and Metabolic Care Center, preview the most anticipated data, explore clinical implications, and discuss what may come next in the exciting pipelines for diabetes and obesity. During the meeting, Isaacs will also participate in a debate on over-the-counter continuous glucose Monitoring with David Ahn, MD, of Hoag, on Friday, June 20, and Bellini will chair 2 sessions, “Real-World Automated Insulin Delivery System Results” on June 20, and “Advances and Trends in Diabetes Technology” on June 22.
Diabetes Dialogue: Therapeutics, Technology, & Real-World Perspectives
In this episode of Diabetes Dialogue, cohostsDiana Isaacs, PharmD, an endocrine clinical pharmacist, director of Education and Training in Diabetes Technology, and co-director of Endocrine Disorders in Pregnancy at the Cleveland Clinic, and Natalie Bellini, DNP, program director of Diabetes Technology at University Hospitals Diabetes and Metabolic Care Center, examine a newly released American Diabetes Association (ADA) consensus report titled Metabolic Dysfunction-Associated Steatotic Liver Disease (MASLD) in People with Diabetes: The Need for Screening and Early Intervention. The publication emphasizes the importance of recognizing MASLD as a critical comorbidity in individuals with type 2 diabetes and prediabetes and outlines guidance for clinicians to improve early detection, risk stratification, and treatment strategies. The episode begins by placing MASLD in historical context alongside other comorbidities such as cardiovascular disease, chronic kidney disease, and hypertension. The hosts explain that MASLD, previously referred to as nonalcoholic fatty liver disease or NAFLD, reflects a metabolic-driven pathology and is now better understood as a progressive condition that increases the risk of cirrhosis, liver transplantation, cardiovascular disease, and impaired quality of life. The more advanced form, MASH (Metabolic dysfunction-associated steatohepatitis), represents progression toward hepatic fibrosis and cirrhosis. A major focus is the Fibrosis-4 (FIB-4) score, a noninvasive, cost-effective screening tool calculated from common laboratory tests (platelets and liver function markers) to assess fibrosis risk. The consensus report advises routine FIB-4 scoring in adults with type 2 diabetes, particularly those with central obesity. Based on risk thresholds, further evaluation may involve transient elastography (FibroScan), advanced imaging, or hepatology referral. The hosts commend the ADA for offering a clear clinical algorithm for evaluation and referral, as well as pharmacotherapy recommendations tailored to disease severity. For individuals with early-stage fibrosis, lifestyle modification and diabetes therapies such as GLP-1 receptor agonists (eg, semaglutide) are first-line approaches. For advanced fibrosis (F2–F3), resmetirom is the only currently approved treatment for MASH. The report also highlights complications from hepatic dysfunction—including impaired hypoglycemia awareness and sarcopenia—underscoring the broader metabolic impact of MASLD. Isaacs and Bellini stress that MASLD should be approached with the same clinical rigor as other diabetes-related complications. They recommend integrating automated FIB-4 scoring in EHRs, interdisciplinary collaboration with hepatology, and clinician education using decision tools from the consensus report.

Diabetes Dialogue: Therapeutics, Technology, & Real-World Perspectives
In this episode of Diabetes Dialogue, co-hosts hosts Diana Isaacs, PharmD, an endocrine clinical pharmacist, director of Education and Training in Diabetes Technology, and co-director of Endocrine Disorders in Pregnancy at the Cleveland Clinic, and Natalie Bellini, DNP, program director of Diabetes Technology at University Hospitals Diabetes and Metabolic Care Center, discuss significant developments in diabetes care from May 2025, including Medtronic's restructured business model, Sequel Twiist's technological collaboration with Abbott, and Breakthrough T1D's efforts to advance early detection of type 1 diabetes (T1D) through national screening initiatives. The discussion opens with news of Medtronic's decision to spin off its diabetes division into a standalone entity, currently referred to as “New Diabetes Company.” While the final name is forthcoming, the move is intended to streamline operations and accelerate innovation within the diabetes space. The hosts highlight the company's promising technology pipeline, including the forthcoming 800 series insulin pump with full smartphone control and plans for a tubeless insulin delivery system. Both experts express optimism that the independence may foster greater agility in product development, enhance accessibility, and maintain a focus on user-centered design, including for populations with visual impairments. Next, Isaacs and Bellini examine the announcement of the Sequel Twiist partnership with Abbott to integrate continuous ketone monitoring (CKM) into a hybrid sensor, which is expected to function similarly to the FreeStyle Libre 3. This device, still in development, will provide real-time data on both glucose and ketone levels—a critical advance for people with type 1 diabetes using insulin pumps, who are at elevated risk for diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA). While excited about the potential for earlier DKA detection, Bellini emphasizes the importance of cost-effective implementation and integration with existing pump platforms. The episode concludes with coverage of Breakthrough T1D's advocacy before the US Preventive Services Task Force to support routine screening for T1D autoantibodies. The goal is to identify individuals in early stages of the disease to prevent DKA and misdiagnosis. The hosts note that despite advancements in understanding T1D progression, many patients remain undiagnosed until presenting with DKA or are mistakenly classified as having type 2 diabetes.

Diabetes Dialogue: Therapeutics, Technology, & Real-World Perspectives
In this episode of Diabetes Dialogue, hosts Diana Isaacs, PharmD, an endocrine clinical pharmacist, director of Education and Training in Diabetes Technology, and co-director of Endocrine Disorders in Pregnancy at the Cleveland Clinic, and Natalie Bellini, DNP, program director of Diabetes Technology at University Hospitals Diabetes and Metabolic Care Center, are joined by Roy Beck, MD, PhD, executive director of the Jaeb Center for Health Research, to discuss the INHALE-3 trial, an adult study evaluating technosphere inhaled insulin (Afrezza) in comparison to standard diabetes therapies, including automated insulin delivery (AID) systems. Beck outlined his center's transition from ophthalmology-focused research to becoming a key player in diabetes trials over the last 25 years, particularly in technology-driven therapies. The conversation explores inhaled insulin's pharmacokinetic profile—its rapid onset and short duration, which more closely mimics physiologic insulin responses than injected rapid-acting analogs. The INHALE-3 trial randomized adults with type 1 diabetes (T1D), including nearly 50% who were on AID systems, to either continue their current regimen or switch to once-daily insulin degludec plus Afrezza for meals and corrections. Surprisingly, Beck highlighted participants willing to suspend AID use to try the inhaled approach, allowing for a head-to-head comparison. The study met its primary non-inferiority endpoint for HbA1c, with outcomes from Afrezza plus basal insulin comparable to those achieved with AID and multiple daily injections. However, Beck emphasized the heterogeneity in response. Approximately 30% of participants switching to Afrezza achieved notably better glycemic control (including greater reductions in HbA1c and less time >250 mg/dL), while a similar proportion performed worse, largely depending on their engagement and dosing frequency. CGM use was required in the study, enabling patients to re-dose Afrezza postprandially as needed, a key factor in those who succeeded. Beck also indicated that overnight glycemic control remained a challenge. While Afrezza performed well during daytime periods, AID systems outperformed it overnight—an expected finding given AID's strength in basal modulation. Weight gain was also lower in the Afrezza group, offering an additional potential advantage. Hosts discussed real-world use cases combining AID with Afrezza, with Beck sharing his son's personal success using Afrezza alongside Tandem Diabetes' Control-IQ in sleep mode, a workaround to prevent algorithmic overlap. He noted future integration could be more seamless with upcoming Bluetooth-enabled Afrezza inhalers or AID systems capable of receiving inhalation data. Safety data showed bronchospasm was rare in the trial, with no confirmed cases attributable to Afrezza. Cough was the most common side effect, generally mild and transient, while active asthma and smoking remained contraindications. Isaacs and Bellini highlighted Afrezza's potential as an underutilized but powerful option in the diabetes toolkit, particularly for patients seeking alternatives to injections or pumps, or looking for greater control over postprandial excursions.

J Darrin Gross I'd like to ask you, Simon Isaacs, what is the BIGGEST RISK? Simon Isaacs Wow, I would say the biggest risk here. Big Question, the big question. Demand. I. Demand is the biggest risk here. You know, demand for properties, demand, if you know you only need one event, one weather event, and everybody ends up leaving. So I would say demand and weather are the biggest risk in my book, yeah, clearly, in Florida, you're, you're one, you know, one, one major weather event, or something like that from, you know, sour people souring on the on the place, or at least, and it doesn't even need to be a major weather event. It just has to be enough that people are concerned and they don't want to deal with it, right? And let me ask you this, do you feel that that's a a local attitude, or do you think it's more of a public perception that gets promoted, you know, news, etc, after an event, public perception, you know, we end up, you know, whether it's the tornadoes, the winds, etc, it stays on the news, which obviously we want to be alerted, you know, you want the warnings and things like that. But, um, the news definitely makes it drag out a little bit longer. But it is a serious it's a serious event, you know. And the tornadoes were an eye opener last year, because everybody thinks it's hurricanes and flooding, but that's not the case. So it's that public perception is, you know, https://isaacsrealestate.com/

In this episode of Diabetes Dialogue: Technology, Therapeutics, and Real-World Perspectives, co-hosts Diana Isaacs, PharmD, BCPS, BC-ADM, CDCES, FADCES, and Natalie Bellini, DNP, FNP-BC, provide a comprehensive review of the 2025 American Association of Clinical Endocrinology (AACE) Annual Meeting held in Orlando, Florida. The episode captures notable sessions, emerging clinical insights, and advances in diabetes care and endocrinology presented during the conference. The discussion opens with reflections on keynote lectures, including a plenary led by Daniel Drucker, MD, on incretin physiology and the clinical evolution of GLP-1 receptor agonists. Isaacs highlights the importance of his translational research and addresses the implications of safety concerns such as pancreatitis and thyroid cancer. Both hosts express admiration for Drucker's role in shaping the field of incretin-based therapies. Another highlight includes the plenary delivered by Anne L. Peters, MD, which emphasized health equity and expanding access to diabetes technology in underserved populations. Isaacs discusses Peters' innovative use of pharmacists in insulin pump clinics and her longstanding contributions to ADA standards of care. Bellini commends Peters' dual impact in both affluent and marginalized communities. The hosts also describe their participation in a hands-on diabetes technology workshop, where attendees rotated through device-specific stations including insulin pumps, CGMs, inhaled insulin, and smart pens. This workshop was part of a broader effort to launch a diabetes technology certification program, with both in-person and online components scheduled for release in summer 2025. Clinical trial updates included coverage of the CONTROL-IQ Plus RCT in type 2 diabetes, studies on weekly insulin formulations, CGM use in inpatient settings, and the Inhale-3 trial on inhaled insulin efficacy. Discussions also touched on advancements in over-the-counter CGMs, data interpretation challenges in individuals without diabetes, and the proposed shift toward using time-in-normal glucose range (TING) metrics to assess glycemic control.

Video Version Only on HCPLive! In this episode of Diabetes Dialogue, hosts Diana Isaacs, PharmD, an endocrine clinical pharmacist, director of Education and Training in Diabetes Technology, and co-director of Endocrine Disorders in Pregnancy at the Cleveland Clinic, and Natalie Bellini, DNP, program director of Diabetes Technology at University Hospitals Diabetes and Metabolic Care Center, sit down with Steven Russell, MD, PhD, Chief Medical Officer at Beta Bionics, to discuss the latest real-world outcomes from the iLet Bionic Pancreas—an autonomous insulin delivery (AID) system cleared by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in 2023. Russell outlines the iLet's fully automated design, which sets it apart from conventional AID systems by requiring no manual settings, carb ratios, or correction factors. The system determines 100% of insulin dosing, adapting continuously to glycemic trends without relying on user engagement. This autonomy makes the iLet particularly effective for individuals with suboptimal diabetes self-management or limited access to endocrinology care. New real-world data, covering 3,300 users from the first year of commercial rollout, reveal a mean baseline A1c of 8.5%—higher than the 7.8% in the pivotal trial and reflective of the broader U.S. type 1 diabetes (T1D) population. The iLet reduced glucose management indicator to 7.3%, yielding an average A1c reduction of 1.2%, more than double that seen in the pivotal study. Outcomes were most pronounced among those with severe hyperglycemia: users starting with A1c >14% saw average reductions of 7%, with low rates of diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) and minimal increases in hypoglycemia (median time

She dives into the real challenges athletes face today, especially around food language, misinformation on social media, and the overwhelming pressure to look or eat a certain way.We explore:The evolving role of sports dietitians in athlete health and performanceHow to use positive, inclusive language around foodWhat it takes to build trust with athletes and create buy-inWhy collaboration between strength coaches and dietitians mattersSocial media's influence on dietary decisionsCommon myths athletes believe about food and performanceCreative strategies to engage athletes in their own nutrition journeyHydration, timing, and making nutrition stick without being rigidJessica emphasizes that the key to effective nutrition isn't just what's on the plate — it's about relationships, trust, communication, and meeting athletes where they are.Quote from Jessica:“Even if you have all the letters after your name and you're the expert—if this other person has a million followers and says things confidently, they're going to listen to them. That's why trust is everything.”
In this episode, we interview Jason Isaacs, the versatile actor behind The White Lotus Season 3's tormented Timothy Ratliff and the new indie drama Words of War, in theaters May 2, 2025. Isaacs had a lot to say when asked about some of the gossip surrounding the White Lotus actors off-screen as well. "Mike (White) has created one of the most entertaining, engaging dramas that seemed to get the whole world talking and thinking and chatting. Why is anybody interested in what the actual boring actors were doing and what we were talking about and how we were hanging out?" -Jason Isaacs Hosted on Acast.

In this powerful exploration of faith and sacrifice, Pastor Snook preaches on the timeless story of Abraham and Isaac from Genesis 22. This sermon challenges us to examine our own willingness to trust God completely, even when His commands seem incomprehensible. Jehovah-Jireh - the Lord who provides - emerges as a central theme, reminding us that God's provision often follows our obedience. As we reflect on Abraham's journey up Mount Moriah, we're invited to consider what 'Isaacs' we might be clinging to in our own lives. Are we truly willing to lay everything on the altar for God? Pastor Snook encourages us to step out in faith, trusting that when we obey God's voice, He will provide in ways we can't imagine. The parallel drawn between Abraham's near-sacrifice of Isaac and God's sacrifice of Jesus on the same mountain centuries later offers a profound insight into God's love and the ultimate provision He made for our salvation.
Bearing the Fruit of Christ (3) (audio) David Eells – 4/30/25 I'm going to pick up where I left off in part 2 and continue speaking about bearing the fruit of Christ in part 3. The “love” chapter in 1 Corinthians has a lot to say about perfection and, while we won't delve too deeply into all of that now, I would like to point out a couple of things there to you: (1Co.13:9) For we know in part, and we prophesy in part; (10) but when that which is perfect is come, that which is in part shall be done away. (11) When I was a child, I spake as a child, I felt as a child, I thought as a child: now that I am become a man, I have put away childish things. Notice, “when that which is perfect is come, that which is in part shall be done away.” What is he talking about? A lot of people say, “Oh, this is talking about the Gospel, when He came”; or “When Jesus comes again.” No, he's talking about you. You put away childish things “when that which is perfect is come,” as you mature. (12) For now we see in a mirror, darkly; but then face to face…. There it is, right there. “When that which is perfect is come,” you see in the mirror clearly, “face to face,” Jesus Christ. As we are told, But we all, with unveiled face beholding as in a mirror the glory of the Lord, are transformed into the same image from glory to glory, even as from the Lord the Spirit (2Co.3:18). We see Jesus face to face by faith now, but the more we grow, the more we see Him maturely, purely and perfectly. It's definitely not talking about the physical coming of Jesus. It's talking about Him coming in you. And he goes on to say, (1Co.13:12) … Now I know in part; but then shall I know fully even as also I was fully known. And we were fully known before the foundation of the world. Remember, Jesus says to those who don't arrive at any form of fruit, “I never knew you” (Mat.7:23). He didn't know them before the foundation of the world. But Paul says, “When that which is perfect is come, I'm going to know, even as I was fully known.” He's talking about you coming into the pure, true revelation of Christ. (1Co.13:13) But now abideth faith, hope, love, these three: and the greatest of these is love. We're coming into His image, we're looking into His love, we're coming into His faith and we're coming into His hope because it's all been given to us from the foundation of the world. God is going to finish the good work He started in us. We should continue to hold fast the glorying of our hope firm unto the end because this is His plan. We're just entering into it. First, with our understanding, because we have to know what to exercise our faith in, we have to seek the Word to know what our opportunity is. Then, once we're convinced of the Will of God, we can stand in the faith and stay firm. If a person is not convinced that something is the Word of God, they're not going to be able to endure in their faith unto the end. They're not going to be patient in their faith to receive perfection, as James 1 says. We need to be convinced from the Scriptures that it's the Will of God for us to be perfect; what the Bible calls perfect, not necessarily what men call perfect. That's why I like to look at a lot of Scriptures and study them. I don't have to be a great preacher because God already said it very well. So I think that as we continue to look at what He said and put that in our heart, He's able to bring it to pass through our faith. He'll bring it to our remembrance, and faith cometh of hearing and hearing by the Word. (1Co.2:6) We speak wisdom, however, among them that are fullgrown (or “perfect”; it's the same word): yet a wisdom not of this world, nor of the rulers of this world, who are coming to nought. The rulers of God's people didn't understand this wisdom, either. Remember the Pharisees, reputed to be the leaders of God's people, who were supposed to be leading God's people in the Word, didn't know it or Him. (7) But we speak God's wisdom in a mystery, [even] the [wisdom] that hath been hidden, which God foreordained before the worlds unto our glory: (8) which none of the rulers of this world hath known; for had they known it, they would not have crucified the Lord of glory. Amazingly, the leaders of God's people did not know this hidden mystery of “Christ in you, the hope of glory,” but those poor, ignorant disciples walked with Jesus. They had this mystery of the Kingdom. The leaders of Judaism crucified Him, but those simple men had this revelation because they walked with Jesus. And history is going to repeat. I tell you right now that the majority of the leaders of Christianity will do exactly as they have done throughout history. They will lead God's people astray. They don't understand the mystery that has been hidden for ages. Paul spoke about “Christ in you, the hope of glory.” That's the real and true Gospel. It's our opportunity to come into perfection, and the leaders don't understand it. Once again, they will crucify the Lord of glory. (Heb.6:6) … They crucify to themselves the Son of God afresh, and put him to an open shame. They will do it again because history always repeats: (Ecc.1:9) That which hath been is that which shall be; and that which hath been done is that which shall be done: and there is no new thing under the sun. Because they don't know the Lord, they don't know this mystery and don't understand perfection, they will come against the ones in whom Jesus lives. They will crucify Jesus again in our day because history always repeats, so that we have “the word of prophecy [made] more sure” (2Pe.1:19). The word of prophecy made more sure is the Word of God. The Bible is teaching us how the history of Christianity, which is a prophecy, will be fulfilled in our day. We just have to read and see what has already happened to know what will happen. There's been a cycle for God's people, as we just read in James chapter three, the cycle of life. Well, we're coming to the last cycle here, and the history that happened in the days of Jesus is going to be repeated. The Lord spoke that to me many years ago – that everything that happened in the time of Christ and His disciples, in the time of the Gospels and in the Book of Acts, is going to happen again. Today, however, it will take place on a worldwide stage, with the New Testament people of God, who are worldwide. Do you want God's perfection? He is the One Who is going to manifest His sons in these days. (Rom.8:19) For the earnest expectation of the creation waiteth for the revealing of the sons of God. And what is the manifestation of the sons of God, except Christ, the Son of God, manifested in you? That is perfection. This is God's promise. We don't live anymore; Christ lives in us. That's “the good confession in the sight of many witnesses” (1Ti.6:12). This is what the world is waiting to see. The world sees a lot of lukewarm Christians and, for that reason, they don't have much respect for Christianity. But, if they see Christ, you know “the sons of this world are for their own generation wiser than the sons of the light” (Luk.16:8). They see right through a lot of things Christians don't see. They see the hypocrisy in God's people. With our busy life we need to remind ourselves regularly of the principles of perfection through Christ: (Heb.5:11) Of whom we have many things to say, and hard of interpretation, seeing ye are become dull of hearing. (12) For when by reason of the time ye ought to be teachers, ye have need again that some one teach you the rudiments of the first principles of the oracles of God; and are become such as have need of milk, and not of solid food. (13) For every one that partaketh of milk is without experience of the word of righteousness; for he is a babe. (14) But solid food is for fullgrown (or “perfect”) men, [even] those who by reason of use have their senses exercised to discern good and evil. What is “solid food”? I remember the Lord saying, “My meat is to do the will of him that sent me” (Joh.4:34). The meat is not just to understand, but to do His Will. The people who are on the “milk” are people who have not experienced “the word of righteousness.” To put it another way, they have not experienced walking in it, obeying it and doing it. But solid food is for the mature. Mature people are able to take the Word and put it to use. It's being manifested in their actions, in their will, in their motives, and so on. It's for “perfect” men. Here is a similar verse: (Rev.3:1) And to the angel of the church in Sardis write: These things saith he that hath the seven Spirits of God, and the seven stars: I know thy works, that thou hast a name that thou livest, and thou art dead. (2) Be thou watchful, and establish the things that remain, which were ready to die: for I have found no works of thine perfected before my God. Last time we saw that the works were only perfected in the people who were being perfected. Of course, imperfect or immature people cannot do perfect works. So He's condemning this group of people because, according to their works, they have “a name that … livest,” which is obviously “Christian,” but they're dead. These people are not living up to the name that was given unto them, and their works are not perfect. He said, “I have found no works of thine perfected before my God.” (3) Remember therefore how thou hast received and didst hear; and keep [it], and repent. God expects perfect works out of His people. We know we were perfected by Christ at the cross and now we're walking into it because it's our opportunity; it's ours to lose, too, by the way. What are works? Galatians chapter five speaks about the “works of the flesh” (verse 19) and the “fruit of the Spirit” (verse 22). Why compare the “works of the flesh” with the “fruit of the Spirit,” unless the fruit of the Spirit is also the “works” of the Spirit? The truth is that the fruit of the Spirit is our works. It's a manifestation of the Spirit through us. If we are Spirit-led, we will have Spirit-works. (Rom.8:14) For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, these are sons of God. Let me remind you of one of the verses that we emphasized earlier: (Luk.8:14) And that which fell among the thorns, these are they that have heard, and as they go on their way they are choked with cares and riches and pleasures of [this] life, and bring no fruit to perfection. In Galatians, we have the fruit of “perfect works” and in Luke we have “perfect fruit,” so, as we see, these are synonymous terms here. We have learned that this word “perfection,” or telesphoreo, actually means “to bring to completion or perfection, with the end in view.” In other words, we have discovered that, as we “calleth the things that are not, as though they were” (Rom.4:17), as we viewed the end and claimed the end, that it was ours! (2Co.3:18) But we all, with unveiled face beholding as in a mirror the glory of the Lord (which is the end in view), are transformed into the same image from glory to glory, even as from the Lord the Spirit. We see here the end in view is Jesus in us. the power by we are receiving what God gave to us at the cross, which is perfection. “Christ in you, the hope of glory.” We've received this by faith and this gives us the power and ability to enter into it “from glory to glory, even as from the Lord the Spirit.” Another verse that talks about arriving at the end that you've viewed as yours is (1Th.5:23) And the God of peace himself sanctify you (talking to Christians) wholly (holoteles, which means “perfection or completeness, unto the end”); and may your spirit and soul and body be preserved entire, without blame at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ. (24) Faithful is he that calleth you, who will also do it. There is perfection. The Lord promised to do it because “faith is assurance of [things] hoped for, a conviction of things not seen” (Heb.11:1). As we believe and as we walk by faith, we arrive at that end in view, which is Christ Himself. God will bring it to pass. The Lord Jesus Himself said, “According to your faith be it done unto you” (Mat.9:29). We are trusting Him to bring us to that place. The most important thing is not to walk by sight, not to see your natural face in the mirror, but to accept what the Lord did for you. Repent when you see anything contrary to the face of Christ. Repent and turn your heart toward Him in faith. He will do the work. So, what is perfection? What is maturity? What is full salvation? What is the end in view? (Luk.6:40) The disciple is not above his teacher: but every one when (notice its “when,” not “if”) he is perfected shall be as his teacher. Who is the teacher here? Jesus! Notice that when he is perfected he shall be as his teacher, so we have something wonderful to believe for, don't we? (2Co.3:18) But we all, with unveiled face beholding as in a mirror the glory of the Lord, are transformed into the same image from glory to glory, even as from the Lord the Spirit. The Lord is the One Who's going to do this, but it's through our faith, and even that's a gift from Him. We have to renew our mind to see the gift of Jesus Christ that God has given to us. We're accepting His free gift, not on the grounds that we've earned it or have any ability or power to partake of it, but on the grounds that God has given Him to us, as a gift. And now Jesus is telling us that when we are perfected, we'll be as our Teacher. This tells us that it's very important who our teacher is. If we make religion our teacher, we're going to fall far short. If we make a certain denomination our teacher, we're only going to go to that level and we're going to stop, because they won't let us go beyond them. They'll judge us pretty harshly if we try. But if we make Jesus, the Word of God our Teacher then we can come into that image. So the best thing to do is to dig and study the Word, to find out exactly what it is to be like Him and to be a disciple. The disciple is not above his Teacher. He promised that a disciple, when he is perfected, shall be as his Teacher. Not all people called Christians will ever be perfected, but disciples will, because they're learners and followers, mathetes. They study the Master. They want to walk as the Master walked. Notice the promise is “when.” But that's for a disciple. There are many, many Christians, but not many disciples. Jesus made conditions for discipleship, and we need to study those conditions, too. Here's a similar verse: (Mat.10:24) A disciple is not above his teacher, nor a servant above his lord. (25) It is enough for the disciple that he be as his teacher, and the servant as his lord. Again, an awesome word that the Lord has given unto us. Many people would call that blasphemy, but the Lord Himself is the One Who spoke it and therefore we must speak it to confess Him and His power. We see that Jesus is “the firstborn among many brethren” (Rom.8:29), who also will become sons and daughters of God. We, too, are being “born” into His image: spirit, soul, and, ultimately, body. (Mat.10:25) It is enough for the disciple that he be as his teacher, and the servant as his Lord. (1Jn.2:6) He that saith he abideth in him ought himself also to walk even as he walked. To abide in Christ means to be coming into that place where you are walking as He walked, more and more. You're growing in the image and stature of Christ, and you're coming into that place. Let me also point out another verse: (Joh.8:34) Jesus answered them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Every one that committeth sin is the bondservant of sin. (35) And the bondservant abideth not in the house for ever: the son abideth for ever…. So there are some who are considered bondservants who will not enter the Kingdom; they will not be “in the house for ever.” They will not have eternal life because they're also bondservants of sin; only “the son abideth for ever.” Therefore we must be sons by faith or by manifestation. “Faith is accounted as righteousness.” There's a difference between a bondservant and a son. Let me explain something to you that the Lord explained to me. Every son is a bondservant and every son serves his Lord diligently, but not every bondservant is a son. A son is a special relationship. This is the heir we're talking about; they're not just a slave. Servants serve for one reason; sons serve for quite another reason. Sons want to promote their father's kingdom because they're also heirs of that kingdom, and they want to please their Father. He's their Father! Bondservants serve, many times, because they have to. Sometimes it might be just fire insurance to them. But to a son, it's different; it's personal when you're a son. And there are far fewer sons than there are bondservants. We see here that the bondservant is not going to abide in the house forever, but the sons abide forever. A son is a servant who has that relationship to the Father. I'd like to further point out the difference between a servant and a son: (Gal.4:1) But I say that so long as the heir is a child, he differeth nothing from a bondservant though he is lord of all. Let's say that all who are called Christians are heirs. Some are children, and some are more and more manifesting sonship. Right now, he says, so long as the heir is a child, he's no different than a bondservant, even though, in reality and according to position, he's lord of everything. God has given us perfection at the very beginning of our walk. It's a free gift He's given unto us, and because we accept it by faith, we walk more and more in that position. What is perfection? It's Christ, it's sonship, it's the manifestation of the Son in you. This is God's plan. Reconciliation is an exchange of Christ's life on the cross for your life. “Reconciliation” means “an exchange.” God has given you His life and His blessings and taken your curse and your sin and put it upon the cross. Now we are entering into this because we believe in this. (Mat.9:29) … According to your faith be it done unto you. The Lord is manifesting this in us freely because we believe that we've been given sonship and not just the position of a servant. Here's another confirmation: (Pro.29:21) He that delicately bringeth up his servant from a child shall have him become a son at the last. Servants and children are equal, but the end result, which we're looking in the mirror to see, is sonship. (Gal.4:1) But I say that so long as the heir is a child, he differeth nothing from a bondservant though he is lord of all; (2) but is under guardians and stewards until the day appointed of the father. That's true; we all start out in kindergarten, which is a lot of religions out there. They are just kindergarten. The Lord told me one time that religions are like playpens that are meant to be outgrown – we're supposed to climb over the bars. They build all kinds of bars around you to keep you in, but you can outgrow them. You can be mature, but in the meantime, there are “guardians and stewards” who keep the baby from getting in trouble. (3) So we also, when we were children, were held in bondage under the rudiments of the world. “Rudiments” here means “elements.” The Greek word stoicheion means “first principles in a series.” Many people are really hung up under the “first principles,” as we read in Hebrews chapter five. They're staying right there; they're not moving from the “first principles.” But if you stay there, you're not going to grow up, and you won't bear fruit. Some people are going around in little religious circles with the same old things, not stretching forth to grow in the fullness of the Word of God. (Gal.4:4) But when the fulness of the time came, God sent forth his Son, born of a woman, born under the law, (5) that he might redeem them that were under the law, that we might receive the adoption of sons. (Heb.7:19) (For the law made nothing perfect)….If you're under the Law, you'll never come to perfection. We're all in a relationship with God, brethren. Grace is the right relationship. We need His grace and His power to work in us. The Law is actuated by our own works, but we receive grace through faith, and then God works the work in us. (Php.2:13) For it is God who worketh in you both to will and to work, for his good pleasure. We need to get out from under the Law, otherwise, we'll always stay a child and bondservant. (Gal.4:6) And because ye are sons, God sent forth the Spirit of his Son into our hearts, crying, Abba, Father. Now, what does “because ye are sons” mean? The answer is here: (Gal.3:25) But now that faith is come, we are no longer under a tutor. (26) For ye are all sons of God, through faith, in Christ Jesus. (Rom.8:19) For the earnest expectation of the creation waiteth for the revealing of the sons of God. That's the manifestation of the sons of God. This is the son of God by faith. We're sons of God by faith because now, in the New Testament, out from under the Law, we're justified by faith in believing that we don't live anymore – Christ lives in us. (Eph.1:4) Even as he chose us in him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and without blemish before him in love: (5) having foreordained us unto adoption as sons through Jesus Christ unto himself, according to the good pleasure of his will. Remember, He that delicately bringeth up his servant from a child Shall have him become a son at the last (Pro.29:21). This comes from both the Jews and the Romans. They had a procedure whereby they would adopt servants in whom they had particular pleasure, maybe if they didn't have a child of their own. They would adopt them as sons, the point being that the word for “child,” teknon, only emphasizes a birth, but the word “son,” huios, emphasizes a particular relationship with the Father. There are many people born into the Kingdom, but they never manifest sonship. They remain children all their lives. They never mature and don't bear fruit. If they believe the Gospel they will bear fruit. One thing that keeps children from bearing fruit is the Law, living under legalism. This is illustrated here: (Gal.4:7) So that thou art no longer a bondservant, but a son; and if a son, then an heir through God. So we see that, by faith, we are no longer bondservants; we're no longer children. We're sons because we come out from under the Law and into grace to enter into this. (8) Howbeit at that time, not knowing God, ye were in bondage to them that by nature are no gods: (9) but now that ye have come to know God, or rather to be known by God, how turn ye back again to the weak and beggarly rudiments (there's “first principles” again), whereunto ye desire to be in bondage over again? (10) Ye observe days, and months, and seasons, and years. (11) I am afraid of you, lest by any means I have bestowed labor upon you in vain. They were going back under the Law and seeking to be justified by the Law, through their own self-efforts to keep the Law, instead of by faith. (Gal.3:11) Now that no man is justified by the law before God, is evident: for, The righteous shall live by faith. So our life comes from faith. Now Paul was worried because going back under the Law cannot manifest Christ in us and it is not the nature of Jesus Christ to begin with. The Law is just “our tutor to bring us to Christ.” He has to take us from that point on. (Gal.4:19) My little children, of whom I am again in travail until Christ be formed in you (in other words, until sonship is formed in you). You're a child if you're under the Law in any form. If your religion is putting you under legalism, whether it's the legalism of the Old Testament Law or their own laws, rather than being able to follow the Spirit, you're going to stay a child. You're never going to grow up. He goes on to talk about the “son of the handmaid” and the “son of the freewoman”: (21) Tell me, ye that desire to be under the law, do ye not hear the law? (22) For it is written, that Abraham had two sons, one by the handmaid, and one by the freewoman. Now that's clear. If you're under legalism, you're not free to hear the voice of Christ and follow Him, and to submit to all that Scripture has to say – not just the little box that your religion has made for you. It doesn't matter whether it's man's legalism or of your own church rules, or even as far as going back under the Old Testament Law. You're not free, and you're not justified by faith like that. Paul goes on to talk about the difference between the sons of the handmaid and the sons of the freewoman. Sons of the handmaid are servants; sons of the freewoman are sons. He warns us in the next verse, (30) Howbeit what saith the scripture? Cast out the handmaid and her son: for the son of the handmaid shall not inherit with the son of the freewoman. Yes, they were both children of Abraham, but Paul is making a type and a shadow here to show us that the bondservant who is not a son will not have the eternal life like the son will. The devil has a lot of people walking in bondage, thinking that they're justified by their works, thinking nobody else is obeying this particular part of the Law but them and they're seeking to be justified by that. They're not free and it's sad. (Rom.8:14) For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, these are sons of God. The Spirit of God is not going to lead you back under the law, a covenant that God never made with you. The Spirit of God is going to lead you under grace because you are justified by faith. If you can't find your doctrine in the New Testament, brethren, be careful. And if you're twisting the New Testament to fit the Old, be careful because the New is the fulfillment of the Old. The Old was a parable, a type and a shadow of the New. You don't want to go back under the type or the shadow. You want to live under the fulfillment and that is, “Christ in you, the hope of glory.” (Gal.4:31) Wherefore, brethren, we are not children of a handmaid, but of the freewoman. Yes, that's exactly right by faith, not necessarily by manifestation, but by faith. So we need to repent. If you are listening to men who are dragging you back under a Law, you need to repent because this is going to stunt your growth. You will be called a son of the handmaid and not of the freewoman. You'll be a bondservant, but you'll never be a son. A bondservant is a child, the Bible says. We're waiting for the manifestation of the sons of God. The whole of creation waits. The whole purpose of God is to create His children into the image of His Son, Jesus Christ. That's the manifestation of the sons of God. There are false doctrines about the manifestation out there and some are scaring away people from the very words “manifestation of the sons of God,” but it's in the Book. It was taught by the Lord and by the apostle Paul. We need an understanding of what “manifestation of the sons of God” means, which is what we're entering into. I'd like to point out that John says exactly what we read in Galatians: (Joh.8:34) Jesus answered them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Every one that committeth sin is the bondservant of sin. (35) And the bondservant abideth not in the house for ever: the son abideth for ever. “Ishmaels” do not have eternal life; “Isaacs” do. We are the seed of promise, through Isaac. Ishmael wasn't; that was a work of Abraham. By type and shadow, we understand what this means. The Parable of the Talents is very clear: (Mat.25:14) For [it is] as [when] a man, going into another country, called his own servants (these are not the people of the world; these are the people of the Kingdom), and delivered unto them his goods. (15) And unto one he gave five talents, to another two, to another one; to each according to his several ability; and he went on his journey. So he gave forth his talents, and he expected them to bear the fruit of this. (16) Straightway he that received the five talents went and traded with them, and made other five talents. (17) In like manner he also that [received] the two gained other two. (18) But he that received the one went away and digged in the earth (in the flesh), and hid his lord's money. (19) Now after a long time the lord of those servants cometh, and maketh a reckoning with them. (20) And he that received the five talents came and brought other five talents, saying, Lord, thou deliveredst unto me five talents: lo, I have gained other five talents. (21) His lord said unto him, Well done, good and faithful servant: thou hast been faithful over a few things, I will set thee over many things; enter thou into the joy of thy lord. (22) And he also that [received] the two talents came and said, Lord, thou deliveredst unto me two talents: lo, I have gained other two talents. (23) His lord said unto him, Well done, good and faithful servant: thou hast been faithful over a few things, I will set thee over many things; enter thou into the joy of thy lord. (24) And he also that had received the one talent came and said, Lord, I knew thee that thou art a hard man, reaping where thou didst not sow (This man is like those who claims Gods works were their own, For the Lord did sow the gift unto them and He expected them to bear fruit.), and gathering where thou didst not scatter (But He did scatter); (25) and I was afraid, and went away and hid thy talent in the earth (He consumed the gift for his flesh.): lo, thou hast thine own. (26) But his lord answered and said unto him, Thou wicked and slothful servant thou knewest that I reap where I sowed not, and gather where I did not scatter; (27) thou oughtest therefore to have put my money to the bankers, and at my coming I should have received back mine own with interest. So when the Lord returned, He judged the two who brought forth fruit and they entered into the kingdom and were blessed abundantly. But he also judged the servant who had only one talent and didn't bear any fruit: (28) Take ye away therefore the talent from him, and give it unto him that hath the ten talents. (29) For unto every one that hath shall be given, and he shall have abundance: but from him that hath not, even that which he hath shall be taken away. (Mat.25:30) And cast ye out the unprofitable servant into the outer darkness: there shall be the weeping and the gnashing of teeth. The unprofitable servant who doesn't bear the fruit, the servant who doesn't manifest sonship 30-, 60- and 100- fold, is cast forth into the outer darkness. They took the one talent away from that person and gave it to the servant who had 10 talents. Remember that because we're going to see it again. In other words, if you have fruit, you'll get more. If you have less, you'll get less. So, great talents have been given to us through the promises, and we should bear their fruit. Matthew gives us another parable that ends up in the exact same place: (22:2) The kingdom of heaven is likened unto a certain king, who made a marriage feast for his son. Jesus. The marriage feast is the time when the Bride and the Groom celebrate for seven days, while on this earth. We see that He invited the Jews to come to that marriage feast, but they mostly refused and mistreated His servants, as happened then. So He sent his armies to destroy their city in 70 AD. He turned away from them and invited strangers, speaking of the gentiles in the Church now. At that time, when the Jews were rejected because of their unbelief in Jesus Christ, He turned and invited the Church, the early Jewish Christians and the gentiles, to His marriage feast. However, the time is coming now when many gentiles will have worldly excuses not to go to the marriage feast and they also will be rejected as the parables show. And then a remnant of the Jews will return. The marriage feast, by the way, is at the bride's home (on earth). At the end of the seven day feast is the marriage supper which is at the Groom's home (in heaven). All are escorted by the wise virgins. The marriage feast was seven days, and we have seven days/years called the Tribulation period that's coming. That will be our marriage feast, where the Bride and the Groom are going to feast upon the bread (the Word of God) and wine (the nature of Jesus Christ). (Lev.17:14) … For the life of all flesh is the blood thereof…. There's going to be a great feast in the last seven days – the last seven years; a great feast upon the very nature and life of Jesus Christ and upon the true Word of God. Jesus will attend as Groom and teach in the Man-child body. We read on: (Mat.22:11) But when the king came in to behold the guests, he saw there a man who had not on a wedding-garment. The wedding garment is the brilliant garment that's given to the Bride in Revelation 19:8. That garment is described as lampros, “bright”, and is described as “the righteous acts of the saints.” whereas the leukos, “white,” garment was on all the rest of those invited to the marriage feast (Revelation 19:14). If you don't have on one of those garments, which represent various stages of manifesting sonship or the righteousness of God, then you're going to be rejected. God is not going to accept people who are justified by works or by the Law. Self-righteousness is not the kind of righteousness He wants. He wants the righteousness of grace through faith. (Mat.22:12) And he saith unto him, Friend, how camest thou in hither not having a wedding-garment? And he was speechless. (Because he was lied to by religion.) (13) Then the king said to the servants, Bind him hand and foot, and cast him out into the outer darkness; there shall be the weeping and the gnashing of teeth. (14) For many are called, but few chosen. Notice there are many people called who are not going to be putting on the wedding garment. The chosen are the people who are wearing the wedding garment. The previous parable we just read gives the same ending, but in that case, the one with the one talent lost his talent, his reward. His reward was instead given to the servant who had the 10 talents. Trust the Lord. Read your Bible and don't trust in any man. Hold fast. Be willing to give up your old life. Be perfect, in the Name of Jesus.

Pop liquide et folk et déclaration d'amour à Joni Mitchell. Le 1er groupe invité est Frànçois & The Atlas Mountains pour la sortie de Âge Fleuve Liquide, voilà comment on pourrait traduire l'odyssée musicale de Frànçois & the Atlas Mountains (F&AM). Il n'y a qu'à jeter un œil à son parcours de vie. Ayant grandi à Saintes sur les rives de la Charente, Frànçois a traversé la Manche pour poser ses valises au Royaume-Uni en 2003, dans la ville portuaire de Bristol. Assistant de français au départ, il finit par glisser vers la scène musicale indépendante qui fera office de laboratoire artistique et émotionnel pour le jeune homme. Une puissante inspiration créatrice : dessin, cinéma d'animation, musique... « Tu te pointais dans des lieux, tu prenais une guitare, un instrument de fortune, un instrument que tu as acheté à la brocante, et tu faisais une espèce d'arte povera de la pop », raconte le musicien à propos de ses années Bristol.Fragilité, pudeur, délicatesse… Une voix qui rappelle aussi d'illustres contemporains, de Devendra Banhart à Vincent Gallo dont les inflexions vocales ressurgissent parfois derrière le timbre si singulier du français. Comme dans Fleuve des âges, morceau presque éponyme de son dernier album Âge fleuve. Un disque souriant et feutré, dernière mouture de la maison InFiné et sixième album studio de F&AM, ce disque souriant et feutré n'a rien à envier aux précédents. Pêle-mêle, Malik Djoudi et sa pop envoûtante, Thomas de Pourquery, le jazzman que tout le monde s'arrache, et la Britannique folk Rozi Plain sont venus prêter main-forte à F&AM. Trois collaborations délicieuses qui se marient à merveille avec les 10 titres qui composent l'album. Mais ce n'est pas tout… L'album s'est construit durant quatre longues années, marquées par la pandémie, où il aura reformé son groupe et navigué entre deux labels, Domino d'abord, avant de se tourner vers InFiné. Puis le décès de son père viendra tout bouleverser et redémarrer la machine désirante du souvenir, qu'il traduit à sa manière : « Depuis que j'ai perdu mon père pendant la pandémie, il y a cette question de l'origine qui s'est mise à ressurgir avec les souvenirs. » L'issue ?

On the day of episode 99's release, it's exactly 100 years since the death on 17 April 1925 of Godfrey Isaacs - Managing Director of the Marconi Company. More than that - new evidence shows that he came up with and championed the idea of the one BBC. For years, the British government (via the Post Office) has been credited with the plan for a singular British broadcaster. But lost meeting minutes have been rediscovered.... The academic who found these minutes - misplaced for decades - is David Prosser of the University of Bristol. He joins us to tell us about the 18 May 1922 meeting where Godfrey Isaacs proposed that the Marconi Company share patents and collaborate with its rivals to form one (British) Broadcasting Company. And Robert Godfrey - Isaacs' great-great-grandson - joins us to give new insights into the life of this under-heralded pioneer in the ways of wireless. Hear tales of the Marconi Scandal, Titanic, business wrangling, broadcasting innovation, battles with the press, and a life cut short. There's a lot to tell, so this is a longer episode than usual - sorry! Actually I'm not sorry... these chaps know their stuff, and it's an incredible tale. .
